    Thanks so much for the help everyone!  I was worried I was doing something wrong when the tips started to turn brown, but it seems that's normal in this case.

    Very excited now to see what we end up with, delighted that it will flower!

    I gather it will need to be planted outside, should I do this soon or wait a while longer?

    I would plant it outside in a sunny position, soon. Water it in well. Get child to do it every other night.

     Much appreciated, will do so on Sunday as I have work tomorrow.  There I was thinking I had a nice wee indoor plant for the kitchen windowsill haha!

    Thank you again everyone, I'll update with pics if I manage to keep it alive long enough to flower :)

    Watch where you put it, it can become quite invasive!
